Directions

Mix all ingredients in a saucepan over Medium-High heat. Stir constantly until it reaches a boil. Let boil for one minute. Remove from heat and pour into a parchment-lined 13×9 baking dish. (This will allow for easier removal).

 Place dish in the refrigerator for about an hour or until set.  Once set, remove from pan and dust top with sugar.

Cut out heart shapes using your cookie cutter. After the first cut-out, dip the cookie cutter in sugar before you cut out the next one. (It won’t stick to much if you do this).
